Points for Honesty?

So I'm in Honolulu and it's raining. Naturally, being from Vancouver, I get all excited and run outside. Har har.

More to the point, the big newspaper here is called the Honolulu Advertiser. Some publications claim their mandate is to inform the public of big important things; advertising is this other thing they have to do that they'd rather not talk about. So I think it's a pretty funny name.

Also of note: The Olympics are front page news, but aren't the WHOLE front page.
